Default Password Protect an App?

Is there anything out there that can prevent an app from being launched without a password?

Primarily I want to prevent gmail, google voice, and messaging from being launched without a password.

Thanks!

Check out the app called "Protector" in the market. It lets you password protect apps, as well as certain functions WITHIN apps (e.g., you can protect purchasing/uninstalling of apps in the market while still allowing downloading of free apps and searching, etc.). It's not free but it's well worth the small fee IMO.
